In short: Challenging, but scenic, very friendlyIn full: A well organised race, with a very friendly atmosphere.Spectator support thin on the ground for most of the course,but good at the finish line. Would have preferred a medal, rather than the rather garish mug.Date of review: May 8, 2005

In short: Scenic, some steep hills, friendly, well marshalled.In full: A very pretty area, spoilt by some tough hills! Good facilities at the start/finish (baggage storage, toilets, drinks etc) and plenty of parking. A quiet area means little traffic.Date of review: May 8, 2005

In short: weather on the day was mizzley,but good temperature. This would be tough on a bright sunny day. Some traffic problems in narrow country lanes towards the end of the race.Date of review: August 24, 2004
